Plasma cell gingivitis is a rare condition characterized by diffuse and massive infiltration of plasma cells into the sub-epithelial connective tissue. It is usually considered to be a hypersensitive reaction to an allergen, although the exact etiology remains unknown. Clinically, it appears as a diffuse, erythematous and edematous growth in anterior maxillary gingiva with a sharp demarcation along the mucogingival border. Here, we present a rare case of localized plasma cell gingivitis with an unusual presentation in the gingiva of posterior mandible.
